Prepare the Crust

Form the Crust
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool.

Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in the granulated sugar and continue to beat until well combined.

Add Sour Cream and Vanilla
Mix in the sour cream and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Incorporate Eggs
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing to keep the cheesecake light and fluffy.
